FM04: Twin Moon
Burger King Futo Lettuce (Futo's Theme)
Astral - Prison

I like Kirby level themes and I like industrial distortion, so I like Burning, Churning Power Plant. That said, a lot of the main melody isnt industrial or distorted enough for my taste, Id want it to have more noises like the distortion from 1:00-1:06 or the metal chimes from 1:36-1:48.

Pushing the topic back an hour would very slightly inconvenience me but wouldnt impact my ability to vote, so its fine. Whyd you have to remind me about Boing Boing & Roger :(

Mutants over Broadway!
Moiety Theme
About That...

By far my favorite part of Rage is the instrumental from 1:48-2:03. I think Id like the song more if it was more focused on the instruments instead of the less interesting vocals.

Voted What I'm Made Of... of course. There are too many good Crush 40 songs I cant decide which one is my favorite. Im looking forward to Live & Learn/Aria Math to see how the result compares to last years xstats.

Aria Math
Declaration! Imperial Floral Assault Group
T11

b10 isnt just passive atmosphere, the lilting melody starting at 0:37 feels like its leading you to explore. The vocals at 1:36 herald your discovery, which the fuller melody starting at 1:50 celebrates. A fitting song for dungeon delving.

I kind of answered this poll question already yesterday. If theres one thing that makes me excited about this years field, its that it has (if Im not mistaken) the most new songs ever in VGMC, beating the previous record of last years field. Pleasantly surprised is exactly how I want to feel when listening to all the new stuff. Case in point: Boing Boing & Roger - T11. What a beautiful song.

New Battle is so happy I want to clap along. This is a hard first match.

I like New Bodhum regular mix much more than the Aggressive mix. The regular mixs chill jazzy instruments complement the vocals without overwhelming them, and its more intricate instrumental sections like 1:44-3:41 are also quite soothing. What the Aggressive mix does have going for it is the distortion effects on the vocals which I am a sucker for, 8:38-8:51 being my favorite.

This here is my second VGMC in a row, and Im already feeling like a seasoned player. Maybe this is a common thought people have their second time around, but Im worried that this field of songs wont live up to the greatness of VGMC17s. Ive listened through almost all the previous brackets now, so first-contest glow or no, I feel pretty confident saying that VGMC17s field was my favorite ever. Well however I end up feeling about that, it is undoubtedly a joy to participate in VGMC alongside everyone else. So to everyone here now, thank you, and lets make this the best VGMC ever, until the next one that is. After all, the best is yet to come (I couldnt resist).

@Chinballz @Waveshine_2001 and the other Mario Kart 64 - Staff Roll nominators I can't @ for some reason, want to use this link? It has clearer audio than the one in the sheet.
